| Learn the ABCs of Importation into Nigeria Posted: 18 Feb 2014 05:40 AM PST Many years ago, importation of goods into Nigeria was seen as a difficult task and the reasons were not farfetched. The process of importing things into the country was filled with so many bottlenecks and bureaucratic red tapes. Continue...  Now, every time you think of importing goods into Nigeria and you need information, you can simply log on to - http://www.nigeriatradehub.gov.ng/ The Nigeria Trade Hub is an interactive portal, designed to assist the importer or exporter, with obtaining correct and timely information. It also provides necessary information about all the Government Agencies required to liaise with to obtain the necessary import permits and certificates that are needed to import or export product into or out of Nigeria. Based on the product and transaction type selected, the portal will provide details including the regulatory stakeholders of that particular product and transaction type, documents required, the cost of administering those documents, duties and tax payable, the number of processing days and any controls/restrictions that might apply. In addition to this development, the Nigeria Customs Service recently released the New Import Guidelines, Procedures and Documentation Requirements, which now gives the Nigeria Customs Service the sole responsibility of Destination Inspection, which is inspecting goods at the port of entry into Nigeria. With this new process in place, importers or their agents will be able to start clearing their goods before they even arrive in Nigeria. For more information on this new guidelines, click on this link: Or call the 24-hour Nigeria Customs Service Help Desk on; 09 – 4621597, 4621598, 4621599 Or send an email topaarhelpdesk@customs.gov.ng | ||
| UNILAG to name 15-storey female hostel building after Mama Peace Posted: 18 Feb 2014 03:02 AM PST   Mama Peace is expected to be in Lagos on Friday, Feb 22, for the foundation laying of the project which is expected to gulp N3billion. Speaking at a media parley yesterday, the deputy vice chancellor Prof Duro Oni said they are naming the hostel after Mama Peace because of her immense contributions to the development of womanhood in Nigeria. Continue... "It is a female hostel and the person due to be named after it is the President's wife who has touched the lives of many women. Over time, we have been having issues with shortage of accommodation, especially for our female students; but as it stands, we are about to witness a huge relief in that regard. I must thank the first lady for agreeing to be part of the history-making event and also thank our parents for coming to partner with us," he said." he said. The project, tagged: "Dame Patience Goodluck Jonathan's Female Hostel Complex'', is expected to be completed in two years and would be financed by the parents forum of UNILAG."

| House of Reps Member move to save Nigerians from imminent fuel scarcity Posted: 18 Feb 2014 02:19 AM PST  Although things may appear to be good at the moment with regards to fuel supply, we can't be certain how long this may last. According to Punch, '16 vessels are said to have been held in the nation's territorial waters by the Nigerian Navy and restrained from discharging their contents until "signals" are received from Abuja'. Hon.Dayo Bush-Alebiosu last week raised the motion as a matter of urgent public importance, informing the House that on a daily basis, the government paid $4.8m as demurrage to the owners of the vessels in the last three months. He said the total amount said to have been paid out so far stood at $446.4m. Continue... According to Hon. Dayo Bush-Alebiosu, the vessels carried petroleum products meant to be used in the country, adding that keeping the vessels on the seas could lead to fuel scarcity soon. In his words, "A reliable source at the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation told me on the condition of anonymity that if this matter is not resolved soonest, the country will face fuel scarcity. The source said the fuel being used in the country now is the last from our reserve," Bush-Alebiosu added. The Speaker, House of Representatives, Mr. Aminu Tambuwal, who presided over the session, referred the issue to the Joint Committee on Petroleum Resources/Public Accounts/Navy for investigation within two weeks. Recall that Hon. Dayo Bush-Alebiosu has consistently been against policies that have negative effects on the Nigerian populace, having spearheaded the review of all treaties entered into by Nigeria. He also recently sponsored the Air Passengers Rights Bill, making airlines legally responsible to their passengers. While its noteworthy that some of these lawmakers are waking up to their legislative duties and responsibilities, we hope this problem will receive the kind of urgent attention it requires, as Nigerians cannot afford another hardship in the form of a fuel scarcity right now! | ||

A family source said the deceased told him he was going to use the ATM, when he was leaving in the morning, but later sent a text message to disclose his intention to commit suicide. The source said Mr. Bankole gave no sign he wanted to take his life. "I even gave him money for his transport fare and told him not to stay out long. He lost his wife on Saturday and she is still in the mortuary; so I thought he needed money to pay or arrange for her burial," he said.Mrs. Bankole, who operated a business centre at the University College Hospital, UCH, died shortly after having a fight with her husband. The source, who lives near the couple, narrated how her death occurred. "We heard him (Mr. Bankole) shouting for help around 2 a.m. on Saturday. And with the help of another neighbour, she was rushed to the hospital; meanwhile she was already foaming from the mouth," the source said. Mr. Bankole's corpse has been deposited at Adeoyo Hospital, Yemetu, Ibadan, mortuary. |
